thermal contact

Answer 10

energy transferred between objects that are touching

Question 11

adding heat _____ an object, and cooling objects ________ it

Answer 11

1. expands

2. contracts

Question 12

Q = m 🔼t

Answer 12

Q = heat in joules or calories ( gained or lost )

M= mass (grams)

🔼t = change in temperature

c = specific heat capacity
